A highly reduced polyoxoanion with phosphorus-centered alternate layers of Mo/V oxides, [(PMo2Mo6V4O40)-Mo-V-V-VI-O-IV((VO)-O-IV)(2)](9-)

An unusual polyoxometalate [H2N(C2H4)(2)NH2](4)(H3O)[(PMO2Mo6V4O40)-Mo-V-V-VI-O-IV((VO)-O-IV)(2)].H2O is hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-VIS, elemental analyses, X-ray photoelectron spectrum, ESR, TG and Single crystal X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 15-227(5), b = 19.491(4), c = 18.737(3) Angstrom, V = 5123(2) Angstrom(3), Z = 4, and R-1 (wR(2)) = 0.0726(0.1416). The compound contains an unusual highly reduced pseudo-Keggin type polyoxoanion and exhibits an interesting phosphorus-centered alternate arrangement of layers of molybdenum and vanadium oxides.

Study on mixed Langmuir-Blodgett film of tri-(2,4-di-t-amylphenoxy)-(8-quinolinolyl)copper phthalocyanine and water-soluble fullerenols

Mixed Langmuir-Blodgett films of tri-(2,4-di-t-amylphenoxy)-(8-quinolinolyl) copper phthalocyanine and water-soluble fullerenols are prepared. Their behavior at the air-water interface and the monolayer morphology are studied. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Limited. All rights reserved.
